Daniel Barenboim returns to Southbank Centre to perform all Beethoven's Piano Concertos, after his sold-out series of Beethoven Piano Sonatas in 2008. Beethoven's First Piano Concerto is the lightest and liveliest of his early works for piano and orchestra, full of wit and energy. The concerto is paired with Schoenberg's first completed orchestral work, written for an unusually large orchestra and featuring a wide range of orchestral textures and colours.
